Ellington High School Case Study
Drill Day
Before we can install the 70 foot sports lighting poles we need to dig some serious foundations. How do we do it? With the biggest drill you’ve ever seen.
Crane Day
After assembling these state-of-the-art LED sports lights, we have to get them vertical. How do we do that?
The Process in 30 Seconds
We erected 26 poles in a single day at Tedford Park. Watch how efficiently everything comes together.
Retrofitting
At Ellington High School we used some of the existing poles and replaced the light fixtures with the new LED sports lights from Musco. Easier said than done. With the right tools and capable operators we made the switch. Just wait till you see the difference in light quality and spillage.
